No.  At least, not a generic one common to many strains of Unix.

If you are running a program which isn't a tty facist, you could pipe
to "tee" and record the entire session.  Then all you need to do is edit out
the portions you need.

Of course, this has drawbacks to the point of near impossibility, if the
program is a visual (eg Curses-based) one.  Separating display-programming
sequences from data can be a true pleasure [ :-( ].
